Deputyship

Knowing that your wishes will carried out and your best interests cared for is a comfort for many. Our deputyship team will have you in safe hands, should you become mentally incapacitated without support from suitable family members.

Powers of Attorney

Entrusting your financial affairs to someone else is no light decision, so making sure you’ve found the right people to make your wishes known is paramount. Our team can prepare and register the lasting powers of attorney that you choose, or act on their behalf where required.

Planning for the long-term is just as important in later life. We work closely with independent financial consultants to make sure your care fee funding is the last of your worries.
